Reid Threatens More ‘Bold Action’ Against GOP

(2005-11-02) — Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-NV, who yesterday shocked Republicans by forcing a closed-door session, today said that if the Senate Intelligence Committee fails to issue a report condemning President George Bush and Deputy White House Chief of Staff Karl Rove he would “take more bold action.”

“I swear, I will chain myself to Cindy Sheehan until Bush and Rove are behind bars,” Sen. Reid said. “We’ll dowse ourselves with kerosene and stand at the White House gate singing ‘We Shall Overcome’ until our demands are met.”

The Nevada Democrat said the threat is part of a new Democrat strategy to “demonstrate that we’re the party of ideas.”

Sen. Reid said if the Cindy Sheehan idea doesn’t work, he’s prepared to begin a campaign of anonymous leaks to the news media suggesting that former vice presidential chief of staff Lewis ‘Scooter’ Libby single-handedly started the Iraq war as a way to get a more manly nickname.
